Overview

See how to drive down costs and improve eDiscovery efficiency

As investigations, litigation and regulatory compliance mandates increase, legal teams struggle to manage case workloads, budgets and risk mitigation without sacrificing key priorities. The pressure to do more with less is driving the need for more efficient, highly scalable eDiscovery processes. In fact, 70% of legal department leaders cite a renewed focus on adopting new or better technologies to simplify workflows and reduce manual processes to cut costs.[2]

eDiscovery solutions help legal teams run as a high-performing business department: on time, on budget and with measurable results.

  • Find facts faster

    Accurately assess case merits and develop case strategy sooner with rapid access to key facts delivered by advanced analytics and filters.

    Reduce document review costs and outside counsel spend with advanced technology, machine learning, automation and expert services.

  • Improve productivity

    Spend less time on legaltech-related logistics and eyes-on document review with analytics, machine learning, automation, repeatable workflows and centralized processes.

  • Reduce risk

    Use technology-assisted review (TAR) and built-in privacy features to ensure no critical documents are missed and no privileged or confidential data is inadvertently produced.

  • Flexibly deploy and scale eDiscovery

    Deploy technology based on the IT environment, on-premises, cloud or hybrid, and rapidly scale on demand to manage spikes in caseload.

  • Optimize resources

    Leverage eDiscovery services, such as collections, forensics, managed document review and investigations support, to reduce internal IT dependencies and free up internal resources to focus on case merits.

Business impacts

  • Centralized legal data management

    Legal departments are under intense resource and budget pressure. Data scattered across systems, vendors and law firms wastes time and increases eDiscovery costs and risks. Centralize eDiscovery data and documents in a single system.
  • Document review

    Rising litigation and investigation volumes strain legal teams’ ability to meet deadlines. Adding reviewers invites more coding inconsistencies, costs and risks from document exposure. Streamline document review with legaltech to optimize results.

  • Repetitive litigation

    Data and work product are often dispositioned at case end, even for matters involving the same documents. Treating repetitive litigation as one-offs limits reuse, multiplies work and increases costs. Centralize data and processes for easy reuse.
  • Legal compliance

    Regulatory or government inquiries and investigations require organizations to quickly collect, review and produce documents. This diverts employee focus and drains data repositories and budget. Rapidly respond to requests and ensure compliance.

  • Subject Rights Requests

    Legal teams must protect sensitive data, promptly respond to SRRs and satisfy localization laws. Disparate tools complicate the process, limiting teams’ ability to find and protect data. Minimize litigation and eDiscovery risk with secure data.
  • Volume increase

    Legal teams handle large data volumes per legal matter and must review them at impressive speeds. Slower legaltech systems, limited resources and multiple processes eat at deadlines. Scale quickly on demand with integrated cloud-based eDiscovery.
